Employee Hacking

Organizations have always been concerned about the ability of outsiders to “hack” into their computing environments and gain access to proprietary information. Interestingly enough, the threat of hacking is primarily a threat from the insider . In fact, security experts often say that over 70% of hacking exploits are from insiders. Employee hacking is a bigger problem than ever before, because dangerous “how-to” information is now so readily available and easily accessible over the Internet. Newly available hacking portals target novice users and offer tools such as scripts and programs, as well as message boards that would-be hackers can use to learn about and discuss their hacking exploits. And employees willing to go to such lengths to obtain this type of information almost never keep the information to themselves, thus presenting a legal risk from the information breach to compound the security risk.

Streaming media includes interactive and high-bandwidth applications that use the Internet to run. Media players, Internet radio, and Internet television are three examples. While it may be useful for employees to view Web-based training sessions on their office computers, it is difficult to see the company benefit of employees watching concert highlights or clips from their favorite TV shows. When used inappropriately, streaming media also presents a risk to organizations in the IT resource domain, as precious network bandwidth is consumed by non-work-related activity, thus adversely impacting business-critical applications. As seen from the above, these threats can pose risks to employee productivity, legal liability, IT resource use, and security.

To avoid all these, the employees have to be managed from spoiling/hacking the Internal network, for this we require a tool which is able to everything from a single console and push it to its clients and manage it centrally.
